ABOUT THIS IMAGE:

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope took this true-color view of Jupiter in support of the
New Horizons Mission. The image was taken with Hubble's Wide Field Planetary
Camera 2 on February 17, 2007, using the planetary camera detector. Jupiter's
trademark belts and zones of high- and low-pressure regions appear in crisp detail.
Circular convection cells can be seen at high northern and southern latitudes.
Atmospheric features as small as 250 miles (400 km) across can be discerned.

Hubble will continue to photograph Jupiter as well as its volcanically active moon, Io,
over the next month as the New Horizons spacecraft flies past Jupiter. New Horizons
is en route to Pluto, and made its
closest approach to Jupiter on February 28, 2007.

Through combined remote imaging by Hubble and in situ measurements by New
Horizons, the two missions will support each other scientifically to learn more about the
Jovian atmosphere, the aurorae, and the charged-particle environment of Jupiter and its
interaction with the solar wind.
